Summary: Attitude Is Altitude
Comment: Maxwell has written about two dozen books in which he examines various dimensions of human development within professional careers and personal lives. He tends to recycle the same ideas from book to the next but all of the ideas are sound. In this volume, he assembles a wealth of quotations which directly or indirectly affirm the power of attitude; by implication, they also suggest the implications and consequences of what is generally referred to as a "negative attitude." In terms of its design and length, this is a "small book" but in terms of the quality of material provided, it offers substantial value. There are several reasons why I urge executives to purchase this book. First, because many of the quotations may be unfamiliar to them and thus help to stimulate some new ideas, perspectives, etc.; also, it is desirable to have the book near at hand to consult when drafting a speech, letter, e-mail, report, or presentation of some kind; also, to provide a copies of the book as gifts to associates, customers, prospective customers, etc.; and finally, when professional or personal circumstances are especially stressful, to be nourished, comforted, and perhaps even reassured by the values of those who are quoted. Maxwell inserts his own observations throughout the anthology whenever and wherever appropriate. Reading and then re-reading this book will help to create and then sustain a positive mindset, just as regular exercise will ensure physical fitness. Now more than ever, we need both.

Summary: Great Read full of Great Quotes / Advice
Comment: I gave this book 4 stars because, while it was refreshing to read and I definitely learned quite a bit, it wasn't a paradigm-shifting book, which is what I am increasingly moving towards for my 5 star books.
The Power of Attitude is one of my favorite quick reads (short book) with very useful and inspirational quotes from some of the world's greatest businessmen and politicians. This book is one of my favorites for inspiration but Power of Leadership by Maxwell is another must read if you are looking for motivation / advice on leadership. If you are looking for a full-blown book try his book, 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader or 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership.
They key to getting any long-term value out of Maxwell's books is to highlight the quotes you love and integrate them into your daily life. Practice what you read essentially.
